A More Sustainable Choice
A More Sustainable Choice
Choosing antique and reclaimed furniture is one of the most sustainable ways to furnish a home.
Older furniture was often built using solid timber and traditional craftsmanship designed to last for generations, rather than a few years.
By giving these pieces a new home, you help reduce demand for mass-produced furniture while keeping beautiful, characterful items in circulation for years to come.

Boar’s Head-form Victorian Letter Clip with Pen Nib Brush
Introducing a delightful piece of history that will add a touch of whimsy to your antique collection or home decor. Behold the Boar’s Head-form Victorian Letter Clip with Pen Nib Brush! This unique item captures the charm of the Victorian era with its intricate design and functionality.
The head of a boar with red eyes takes center stage, exuding a regal yet mischievous aura. But this boar is not just a decorative ornament; it serves a practical purpose as well. Its mane is fashioned from a pen nib brush, perfect for tidying up your writing utensils. And there's more! Behind the boar's head sits a clever lever, which, when opened, transforms the boar's mouth into a convenient clip for securing your letters or papers. How clever and whimsical!
Engraved on the underside of this marvellous creation is the date "Published Feb 5th 1850, Messenger." It's a testament to its rich history and the era it hails from, serving as a delightful conversation starter for anyone who admires the beauty of the past.
